We are deeply saddened by the passing of Dr. Brian Feagan. Dr. Feagan was a long-standing CAG member and an influential leader in IBD research and care. His contributions to gastroenterology have left a lasting imprint on our community and on patients across Canada and beyond.

Patients living with IBD shouldn’t have to “fail” outdated treatments before receiving the therapies that actually work for them. CAG stands with Crohn's and Colitis Canada in calling for an end to “fail first” policies that delay appropriate, evidence-based care. Take action today:
End Fail First Policies - End “Fail First” Policies for IBD Care | Crohn’s and Colitis Canada
Tell your government to end “fail first” policies in IBD treatment. Many patients must try ineffective drugs before getting access to better therapies. Join the campaign for faster care now.
